Identifying skipped episodes on Uverse DVR

When I was on DISH and I set up to record a series, the recordings list would let me iwhen an episode was skipped because it was not a new episode or conflict with another program.  I don't see that option with Uverse...anyone know if this is possible?

If a program is scheduled to be recorded it will show a red x in the Guide/Favorites grids if there is a conflict.  You schedule programs to be recorded at a specific time, or any time, first run or all including reruns.  If you attempt to schedule a program that is in conflict (i.e., more than your streams allow) it will also show a red x in the grid.

 

If you don't do anything about these conflicts it just won't record those shows.  There is nothing to tell you it didn't record other than you just won't find them in you list of recorded shows.

 

Note, I've left out some details about how to handle conflicts when scheduling and series priority.  But I wanted to keep this simple.

 

FWIW, I always schedule using any day/anytime and first run only.  But then I also review my favorites grid at the start of each week checking for potential conflicts and trying to resolve them.
